#1361676 — [PATCH v2] module: fix noreturn attribute for __module_put_and_exit()

__module_put_and_exit() is makred noreturn in module.h declaration, but is
lacking the attribute in the definition, which makes some tools (such as
sparse) unhappy. Amend the definition with the attribute as well (and
reformat the declaration so that it uses more common format).

v1 -> v2: use __noreturn instead of __attribute__((noreturn)) as requested

Oops, I applied it, and in testing noted that lguest had broken and
ended up getting distracted by that.  I've acked it now (it will
probably wait until next merge window).

Thanks,
Rusty.
